Podcasts about Far North Queensland

In today's show, Betty interviews Sonya Takau from Dingo Culture and Alix Livingstone from Defend the Wild all about the native Australian dingo. We learn about the character of the dingo, their role in Australian ecosystems and what makes them unique. We go on to discuss some of the significant threats facing the dingo and strategies for securing their future led by First Nations land custodians. Sonya Takau is a Jirrbal Rainforest Aboriginal woman living in Tully, Far North Queensland. The dingo is highly significant to Sonya and her family. To Sonya, the dingo is kin, and she has a cultural obligation to protect them from harm. As well as Sonya's cultural ties to the dingo, she has a particular personal passion for the species and shares her home with an orphaned wild-dingo named Bina. Sonya is the director of Dingo Culture, a platform dedicated to representing the Aboriginal perspective on the dingo, which has been drowned out for the past 233 years. Dingo Culture's mission is to create legislative change to recognise and protect dingoes as culturally significant animals. In 2023, Sonya played a key role in bringing about the first of its kind National Inaugural First Nations Dingo Forum, which brought together First Nations people from across the country to have their say on current dingo management across the country. At the conclusion of the forum a historic National First Nations Dingo Declaration was produced, which outlined the cultural significance of the dingo and called for a new, non-lethal, model - caring for Dingoes on Country. Alix Livingstone is the Founding Director of Defend the Wild. She is motivated by a desire to address the complex challenges confronting Australian wildlife. Alix possesses a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to collaborating with various stakeholders on the ground to ensure that solutions can be found that benefit wildlife, ecosystems, and communities. Alix is highly skilled in crafting high-impact public awareness campaigns aimed at reshaping public perceptions and driving positive change. She actively participates in lobbying efforts targeting Government and peak industry bodies to advocate for legislative and policy reforms that prioritise the welfare of communities, wildlife, and the environment. Alix spearheaded the development of Defend the Wild's Dingo campaign, which was featured on ABC's 7.30 program, shedding light on the government-sanctioned treatment of Dingoes across Victoria. Additionally, she played a pivotal role in launching the #DropCroc campaign, featured on Channel 10's 'The Project,' unveiling the practice of factory farming Saltwater Crocodiles under the guise of conservation.

Apply Here.TRANSCRIPTIONGeorge: Hey, it's George Fourie. Welcome to another episode of the Martial Arts Media™ Business Podcast. So, today I'm speaking with Mark Loughran from the Australian Martial Arts Academy.So, episode 156—155—I'd been chatting to Hakan, Hakan Manav, and Mark's name dropped in there quite a few times. So I thought I'd bring the man on himself to have a chat about 18 years in martial arts. He's also one of the head instructors at the Australian Martial Arts Academy, and one of our featured speakers at the Partners Intensive that's coming up in June, depending on when you listen to this.But with that said, welcome to the call, Mark.Mark: Thank you very much. Great to be here. George: Good stuff.We've only just recently met as well. So I'm going to take this as a blank canvas and a conversation just to tap into your genius, the things that you do. So if we had to start from the beginning, who's Mark, how did you get into the industry? Let's go from there.Mark: Yeah, that's a really interesting story, actually. My journey into the martial arts industry started as a recovery piece. Flashback to 2005, I was graduating high school.So, that makes me feel like I'm starting to get old now, everyone I'm teaching was born after that year. Flashback to that time, I graduated high school and got presented with a couple of opportunities.One was from my parents. They said, “If you want to go further and study at university, you can do that,” because my dad worked as a Deputy Vice Chancellor at James Cook Uni. I grew up in Townsville, in Far North Queensland.And they said, “If you want to go to university here, go for it. Stay at home, it's free, all good.”And they said, but if you want to go away, pay for it yourself. And that was the deal. My brother had the same deal.He was a couple of years older than me. And he got himself a full scholarship to Melbourne uni. And he was like, Townsville was too hot.I did the exact same thing, except I went to UNSW. So I've got a scholarship to study medicine at UNSW and went down there, started that journey and ended up getting really sick towards the end of my first year with glandular fever. And there was a whole piece of trying to identify what was going on there, because I was really sick for quite a long time. I ended up with chronic fatigue syndrome, which I still have now, 19 years on.And I still battle that every single day. My sort of path into martial arts started about a year after I got really sick with that. I ended up bed-bound for one to two years.Part of my recovery, actually, I should backtrack a little bit. I was doing high-level athletics at a national level at that time as well. I used to play A-grade tennis and represented Queensland in different sports when I was in high school.I was always an athletic person. And then, for someone to go from that to completely bed-bound, it was a big change and a big struggle. So part of my recovery...

When Elizabeth Makepeace fell for a younger, free-spirited musician, she thought she'd found the love foretold in a dream. But what began as a spiritual connection turned into a controlling, emotionally draining marriage that forced her to confront an old pattern she thought she'd outgrown: the compulsion to care for others at the cost of herself. In this deeply honest conversation, Elizabeth shares how she broke the cycle, rebuilt trust with her children, and finally found peace—not just in a partner, but within herself. If you've ever wondered why certain roles keep showing up in your relationships, this episode offers insight, healing, and hope.Guest Bio If you're curious about energy/magic then you need to meet Elizabeth Elenor. Her journey through her 40s was the progression of taking back her power as she left her narcissistic marriage and he started dating a 21 year old. A deep dive into personal power led her to discover the secrets of alchemy; she merged this knowledge with 25 years of being a healer to create The Ascendance Code and energetically align with her Higher Self Wisdom.Turning 40 and resigning as the family fixerElizabeth Makepeace was living a vibrant life in the tropics of Far North Queensland—raising her kids, running a successful healing practice, and feeling aligned in mind, body, and spirit. But when she met a charming, younger musician who swept her off her feet, her well-calibrated world began to shift. What started as a dream romance quickly turned into a rigid, emotionally complex marriage that echoed a painful pattern from her past: the need to care for and fix others, often at her own expense.In this candid and deeply personal episode, Elizabeth shares how a midlife unraveling—marked by loss, anxiety, and the crumbling of family trust—pushed her to finally recognize a generational caretaking pattern she'd been unconsciously replaying. Her story is one of heartbreak, healing, and ultimately, liberation. And yes—her real-life love story ends with a twist that feels straight out of a fairy tale (complete with a symbolic last name!).Episode HighlightsElizabeth's early life as a caretaker for her ill father shaped her subconscious belief that love means caregivingHow a “dream come true” romance slowly morphed into an emotionally taxing marriage marked by control and rigidityThe moment she realized she couldn't heal her partner—and the empowerment of walking awayRebuilding trust with her children and healing her own trauma through bodywork and reflectionThe emotional and spiritual reckoning that came with turning 40—and the clarity it broughtHer advice for listeners: examine the “movie” of your life and ask why certain characters keep showing up in the same rolesThe joyful discovery of a new, healthy relationship built on peace and mutual careElizabeth's story is a wonderful reminder that no matter how much personal work we've done, there are always deeper layers waiting to be revealed. Her midlife unraveling wasn't a failure—it was the doorway to true healing. By identifying the patterns that kept her stuck and tracing them back to their origins, she was able to finally break the cycle. And in doing so, she made peace—with her past, her pain, and eventually, with a man whose name poetically symbolized that transformation.If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to rate, follow and review the podcast.

Search & Rescue coordination expert and retired policeman, Dr Jim Whitehead APM, discusses two cases where police were called to search for men who went missing in remote bushland.Jim's article about the first case – titled ‘The Perfect Storm' – was printed in the September 2023 edition of the APJ. In that case Mr Don Marchant went missing in rugged jungle-like bushland in southern Queensland, a day before the region was struck by Tropical Cyclone Debbie.The second case involved a hermit, Mr Victor Horne, who disappeared on a large property in Far North Queensland. Initially, only Victor's vehicles and spoilt groceries were located by the property's owners and searchers. The article about this case – ‘A Lonely Death' – was published in the June 2024 edition of the APJ.Both articles are available at the APJ's website - www.apjl.com.au In his conversation with podcast host Jason Byrnes, Jim talks about each case and the lessons learned or reinforced for police search coordinators.

In this episode of the FitMIND FitBODY podcast, I chat with Jackson Millan, a successful entrepreneur who has recently taken on the world of running. Jackson's journey into running is unique, as he never considered himself a runner growing up. In fact, he admits that running wasn't something he ever enjoyed as a kid or young adult.   Despite a busy life filled with entrepreneurship and martial arts, Jackson decided to challenge himself by taking on one of the most difficult trail races in Australia: the Pyramid Race in Far North Queensland. With determination and discipline, Jackson went from being a self-proclaimed non-runner to completing ultra-endurance events, pushing both his physical and mental limits.   Jackson shares how running has taught him valuable lessons about mindset, perseverance, and pushing through discomfort. He emphasises the importance of setting big, scary goals and publicly committing to them to hold yourself accountable. His story is full of practical tips and inspiring moments that will motivate anyone to lace up their shoes and start their own running journey.   Running Tips from Jackson Millan:   1. Start Slow and Build Gradually: Don't try to rush into long distances. Start with shorter runs and slowly build your endurance. 2. Follow a Structured Plan: Work with a coach or follow a clear plan to ensure you're progressing in a safe and consistent way. 3. Zone 2 Training: Focus on running at an easy pace to build your cardiovascular endurance over time. 4. Publicly Commit to Your Goals: Share your running goals with others to keep yourself accountable and motivated. 5. Push Through Mental Barriers: Recognise that running is as much about mental strength as physical endurance. 6. Consistency is Key: Regularly show up for your runs, even if they're short. It's the consistency that leads to improvement. 7. Listen to Your Body: Know when to push and when to rest to avoid injury.   Tune in to hear Jackson's incredible journey, his insights on running, and how he applies his entrepreneurial mindset to his running goals. Whether you're just starting out or looking for some extra motivation, Jackson's story is packed with valuable lessons.   **** A little more information about Jackson - Jackson Millan - The Wealth Mentor (CEO and Co-Founder of Aureus Financial) has spent the last 16 years helping service businesses understand the language of money and manufacture financial freedom for themselves and their families.    He has successfully helped thousands of clients build in excess of $3 billion in combined wealth and has scaled multiple 7 figure businesses.

I have been fortunate to travel recently again and this time up to Far North Queensland to Cairns and to Brisbane with a fantastic club called Bimer Bonsai Club.
